Where to Eat this Weekend – January 2018

There are many popular and interesting Singapore events to fill up your weekends in the new year, such as Toddler Art Workshops at 8Q SAM, the Jay Chou Concert on 6 January and Singapore Art Week 2018 – a twelve-day celebration of the visual arts in venues across Singapore from 12 to 28 January. In the first month of the year you can also join in the fun and interactive family activities at the SG Cares Carnival on 13 January or immerse yourself in the Pokémon universe with your fellow Pokémon enthusiasts at Pokémon Run Carnival on 27 January.

New dieting plan for the new year notwithstanding, the weekend is a time to take a break and enjoy good food. You may even stick to a healthy diet and have a very nice meal because in Singapore there are diverse options for nutritious and well-balanced meals. Here is The Ordinary Patrons’ (TOP) round-up of Where to Eat this Weekend in Singapore for January 2018, with health-conscious patrons in mind.

The Weekend Brunch

Grain Traders is a casual eatery in the mall that is annexed to the Amara Hotel serving hearty comfort food. You can design your own rice bowls, choosing healthy options like brown rice, quinoa or soba noodle, and adding tasty protein and vegetables. Read about our Grain Traders bowls here.

Off the Beaten Track

A healthy weekend January 2018 activity could be a walk in colourful Joo Chiat with a nutritious meal at Loving Hut.

The dishes are interesting, with options such as vegan o-luak, banana leaf nasi campur, almond crumble fillet and Portobello burger. Read more.

Time to Indulge

Orchard Hotel Hua Ting Chinese restaurant has reopened after undergoing a few months of renovations. The new contemporary look is impressive and the new Hua Ting can be a good place for high-end Chinese private dining. It has luxe tea and interesting dishes like baked drumstick with healthy herbs. It still offers affordably priced dim sum. Read about our lunch at Orchard Hotel Hua Ting Chinese Restaurant.

Family Time

A good place with the family on a weekend January 2018 would be Open Farm Community in Dempsey. Housed in a one-storey glasshouse, it has a large timber deck area which holds the alfresco seating and a fun area with parasols and even a table tennis table. Children can enjoy a sand-pit playground and learn about edible garden. The restaurant focuses on locally sourced, seasonal and innovative dishes. Read about our visit to Open Farm Community here.
